Research group Quantitativ Criminology
The Quantitative Criminology Research Group was established in 2022. An interest in quantitative methods in criminology – its possibilities and limitations – is what unites the group.
Many of the key questions in criminology are of a quantitative nature. Examples include questions about crime trends, the possible over-representation of specific groups in crime, or the effects of legislative changes on the risk of re-offending. It is central to the credibility of criminology that such issues are properly analysed. The Quantitative Criminology Research Group has therefore been established to provide a forum for discussion of quantitative methods, in more detail than is appropriate within the framework of the department's regular seminar activities. Here, members can initiate discussion of e.g. specific analytical methods, quantitative research designs or measurement. But the group is also intended to be a resource for consultation on quantitative methods for other members of the department.
